The taxes paid by immigrants typically cover the cost of public services used.”
Not true for Texas according to a report from Federation for American Immigration Reform provided to Breitbart News. In 2013 alone FAIR estimated that Texans spent $12.1 billion on illegal immigrants whereas taxes paid were estimated to only be $1.27 billion per year. This did not include the payments of $1.9 billion per year from taaxpayers to fund Medicaid or the $1.1 billion to fund law enforcement efforts associated with illegal immigration.
Whenever they calculate the costs of illegal immigrants they NEVER include ALL the costs. That way they get the number they want.
